Greenville High School

To our Greenville Family: It is with deep sadness and a heavy heart that we inform you of the unexpected passing of one of our beloved teachers, JoAnn Simmons. As a member of our family for 36 years, Mrs. Simmons has left an undoubtedly lasting impact on our community. During the 2018-2019 school year, JoAnn was nominated by a former student for the National Life Group’s LifeChanger of the Year Award. “Mrs. Simmons did so much more than provide an education. She provided hope, taught students to believe in themselves, to search for and stay true to their strengths, and, above all else, to have compassion for everyone.” Mrs. Simmons will be missed more than words can express. We urge each and every member of our community to live their lives as she did: with hope, with care, and above all else, with love. For a firsthand account of the impact she had on her students, as well as the dozens of comments sharing their memories and attesting to the lasting impact Mrs. Simmons left, we encourage you to read her nomination here: https://app.lifechangeroftheyear.com/nomination_detail.cfm?NominationID=2463&NominationYear=2018&SchoolState=NY Respectfully, Michael Bennett Superintendent of Schools

Congratulations to Maddy Prayto, GCS softball player and incoming freshman, who pitched a no-hitter in the semi-finals at the USSSA All American Games! She was not only on her game on the mound, but at the plate too - batting over .700 with six doubles, a triple, AND a homerun. Maddy plays for the Northeast 14U All American team, who finished 2nd in the 14U Open Division in Florida last week. Congratulations, Maddy...you make us proud!

GHS students and families: Regents exams are taking place this year and will count as credit towards graduation. Click here for the Regents Exam schedule. The schedule is also posted in the Daily Bulletin which is located on the GHS website. Expectations: Bookbags, purses, cell phones, earbuds, smart watches, etc. will not be allowed in the testing site. Be sure students get a good night’s rest and eat breakfast/lunch before you take your exam. Students only need to attend school during Regents week on the days they have Regents Exams. If students do not have a Regents exam, they do not need to attend school. If students do not have transportation, they are welcome to wait in the cafeteria either before or after their exam for buses. They will not be allowed to leave campus while waiting for a bus. Breakfast and lunch will be available through 6/21. Students can keep their laptops until their last Regents exam. Transportation: Morning and afternoon bus runs are available to HS students. There is also a late bus that leaves the high school at 4:15 pm through 6/17. Morning bus runs will continue through 6/23. For 6/21 - 6/23 buses will leave campus at 11:45 am.

The Field of Flags gives the lawn of Ellis Elementary a special look for the month of May. On this Memorial Day, we honor those who have died serving our country.

Students in Food and Nutrition worked hard to make and decorate patriotic cakes for Memorial Day. Each student baked a 6 inch cake from scratch and used piping techniques to ice and decorate their cakes. The cakes were then displayed and voted on. Deliciously patriotic!

As a reminder, school will be closed on Thursday, May 26 through Monday, May 30th for Memorial Day Recess.
